ryoanJi Zen temple, kyoto<br />
As we grow in right thought, detaching<br />
from hatred and cruelty, we become<br />
aware <strong>of</strong> the constant flow <strong>of</strong> human<br />
experience, the impermanence <strong>of</strong> all<br />
things, the constant state <strong>of</strong> the flux <strong>of</strong> life,<br />
the process.…<br />
strongly influenced by shinto and buddhism,<br />
the Japanese style <strong>of</strong> landscaping is particularly<br />
conducive to restoring inner calm. requiring an<br />
artful blend <strong>of</strong> imagination, skill and patience, the<br />
Japanese garden is an extension <strong>of</strong> the self. by<br />
adapting the harmonies <strong>of</strong> natural design to <strong>our</strong> own<br />
landscape, we heighten <strong>our</strong> understanding <strong>of</strong> the<br />
world around us and within us.<br />
the Gardens <strong>of</strong> the Spirit wall calendar features<br />
twelve exquisite images from garden photographer<br />
allan mandell. paired with contemplative text by<br />
maggie oster, this collection <strong>of</strong> images brings the<br />
experience <strong>of</strong> Japanese gardening to all who long to<br />
create a peaceful oasis in the midst <strong>of</strong> a challenging<br />
world.<br />
